One thing he has achieved............it's now famous and will be mentioned from time to time long after it's gone
Few would remember the 120 bricks (as such) but a whole generation remembers the controvesy over them and so the bricks are imortal for that reason, even to the point of becoming symbolic of modern 'art'
